This workshop aims to prepare the upcoming discussion on the expected Commission proposal for a securities law directive (SLD) which is expected to be adopted in Summer 2011 and the subsequent report of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs. It is linked to the briefing paper PE 464.416 on 'cross-border issues of securities law: European efforts to support securities markets with a coherent legal framework' and is designed to illustrate present European and U.S. regulation on securities credited to accounts by intermediaries as well as international approaches in the area.
